Hi Guillaume, I think that's exactly the case. I put some breakpoints in that copy of the ConfigurationHandler and the read method was hit. It still looks like it doesn't necessarily handle the backslashes the way I would expect. Does anyone have any insight into that?

It has its own copy of the ConfigurationHandler class: https://github.com/apache/felix/tree/trunk/utils/src/main/java/org/apache/felix/utils/properties Maybe that's the reason why you didn't hit your code ?
